Novel architectural schemes for wavelength conversions in optical cross connect systems

This paper proposes simple, cost-effective schemes for wavelength conversions in optical cross-connect (OXC) systems using wavelength-fixed light sources and an optical space switch, and provides improved performance in stability and conversion range of wavelengths and channel spacing. In addition, the schemes avoid the need for the wavelength locking control that is generally needed after changing the probe beam wavelength from one wavelength to another. The technical feasibility of the proposed pre-fix scheme is investigated in terms of probe beam power through experiment of wavelength conversions based on the cross-gain modulation. The results show that the proposed wavelength conversion scheme in OXC allows a ±4 dB deviation in the probe beam power to afford a 2 dB power penalty deviation from the minimum power penalty. As long as the insertion loss deviation of an optical space switches are within ±4 dB, the proposed pre-fix scheme can be used for wavelength conversions in OXC systems for a 2 dB power penalty deviation, whereas the proposed post-fix scheme does not require an optical space switch.

Reconfigurable Optical Add‐Drop Multiplexer Using a Polymer Integrated Photonic Lightwave Circuit

We have developed a fully functional reconfigurable optical add‐drop multiplexer (ROADM) switch module using a polymer integrated photonic lightwave circuit technology. The polymer variable optical attenuator (VOA) array and digital optical switch array are integrated into one polymer PLC chip and packaged to form a 10‐channel VOA integrated optical switch module. Four of these optical switch modules are used in the ROADM switch module to execute 40‐channel switching and power equalization. As a wavelength division multiplexer (WDM) filter device, two C‐band 40‐channel athermal arrayed waveguide grating WDMs are used in the ROADM module. Optical power monitoring of each channel is carried out using a 5% tap PD. A controller and firmware having the functions of a 40‐channel switch and VOA control, optical power monitoring, as well as TEC temperature control, and data communication interfaces are also developed in this study.

All-optical remote switching for multiplexed optical fiber sensorsand communications systems

All-optical self-routing switches are described which automatically route optical data signals. These switches require no separate source of power, and have been demonstrated to operate from a single input laser beam of 300 μW. The input laser beam contains the data, destination address, and optical power. These optical switches can be used for all-optical communication systems, and are used as an example in this paper to demonstrate remote switching via an optical fiber to a sensor. The sensor modulates the optical carrier which returns the modulated carrier to the source end of the fiber. The switch demonstrates auto-aligning properties which ensure correct rerouting of the modulated signal back to the source. Operation has been demonstrated for all the visible lines of an argon ion laser
